#ENDALZ with Marilyn's Mighty Memory Makers

Marilyn Napoletan was avibrant, witty, independent, beautiful, full of life woman - and she was my mom. Shespent what should have been her"golden years"trapped in this nightmare called Alzheimer's. Mom retired at age 61 and began this journey shortly after - our lives were changed forever, and I'm committed to doing everything I can to honor her memory and #ENDALZ.

Please help us unite in a movement to reclaim the future for millions and keep my mom's memory alive forever by purchasing an #ENDALZ 4M t-shirt. Proceeds will benefit the2015 Walk to End Alzheimer's, the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds to fight Alzheimer's disease.

This disease is devastating to both the person afflicted and to their loved ones. It's a slow, painful death that can drag on a decade or longer. In the words of oneperson living with younger onset, it's like having a bit of your brain shaved away every day.This isnotjust a disease of the elderly; younger onset strikes people in their 30's, 40's, and 50's.

Together, we can help advance research to treat and prevent Alzheimer's and provide programs to improve the lives of millions of affected Americans. But the time is NOW, not next year or the year after. We are running out of time. Thank you for your support!
